Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We investigate how advisors' own health and survival assessments, and information about their advisees' health and survival probabilities, shape their recommendations regarding retirement spending and investment.Using experiments involving amateur and professional advisors, we show that advisors' self-assessments have only mild effects on their recommendations, but they do respond differently when provided longevity and health information about their advisees.Moreover, amateur advisors mainly react to simple cues, while professional advisors are more sensitive to client-specific information.While many rely on informal advice from friends or family, amateurs often cannot accurately analyze and utilize key information needed to provide suitable advice.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
